The 50 foot long sculpture, entitled "Birds of a Feather," hangs from the ceiling in the baggage claim area of the Des Moines International Airport.
It is led by a painted metal gold finch with an 8 foot wingspan. The finch is trailed by over 2,000 small birds that were painted by families during the Des Moines Arts Festival
The auditorium uses a mix of acoustical block, wall panels, split face block, and burnished block to create a warm, inviting space for audience members
